Original Classic CJ 6 MK4 Tuxedo Park newer top tow bar Original 4 cylinder "hurricane" engine T90 trans with New clutch leaf bushings, and U joints 3 speed column shift 16" tires he says it smokes a little but oh well, it runs and drives well, he cleaned out the fuel tank about a year ago. little rough on the fenders and the bottom of the door jambs.     what do you guys think? | |||||||||||

 | You don't have to worry about denting it.  Not bad though, it just needs a  engine and a cage.

Cool!   You going to use the Blazer chassis and just put the body on it? That will save a lot of fabbing time/work. How do the wheelbases compare? I don't know the numbers, but it sounds like that will put the axles out to the ends, like you'd want. Will it be streetable too?
